use the same fresh water pump used for the cockpit
sink. With the “FRESH WATER” switch “ON”, push the
spray nozzle button to purge any air that may be in the
system. When a steady flow of water is coming from the
washdown nozzle the air has been purged. Release the
spray nozzle when finished. As the pressure builds, the
pump will automatically shut off at 35 psi.

system can be used in the same manner as the water
system in a home. An automatic pressure sensor in the
water pump keeps the system pressurized. Simply op-

system has been recently filled, or has not been used for
an extended period of time, air bubbles may accumulate
at the pump. If this should happen, re-priming may be
necessary.
